Skepticism And Political Participation by Aryeh Botwinick
This work examines the relationship between epistemic skepticism and civic engagement, arguing that doubt about political knowledge and institutions need not produce apathy but can, if properly channeled, foster more reflective, accountable participation. It analyzes how skepticism interacts with trust, legitimacy, and deliberative norms, distinguishing corrosive cynicism from productive critical inquiry, and offers a normative framework and practical recommendations for institutional design, education, and public discourse that cultivate constructive skepticism and strengthen democratic responsiveness.
